For the name itself, Gipetto has a long history. It goes back to a conversation I had with a famous fashion designer in New York. From then on, I made Gipetto my own lingo.
I will take you to a fun filled journey about my world in New York. I believe in the 5F's of life: fierce, fabulosity, flawless, forever young, and ferociousness.
So join me in my quest to chic triumph.
You will love it.

FIT FOR AN AMERICAN BEAUTY

This past Thursday, Mark and PJ invited me to a party at the Fashion Institute Of Technology of New York. The museum at F.I.T. celebrated the American Beauty. The installation was a success. Designers like Francisco Costa, Bibhu Mohapatra, Gilles Mendel, Costello Tagliapietra, Yeohlee Teng, Jean Yu, Justin Guinta, and Thom Browne were present to see their works of art on display. The name of the exhibit is American Beauty. They featured all the top dresses of American designers. What caught my eyes? The three lovely dresses from Rodarte... Amazing.

We were chatting with Patricia Mears about the installation. PJ Pascual's friend, Mark Walsh, has so much knowledge when it comes to fashion history. I enjoy hanging out with them. As we were all about to leave, Daphne Guinness arrived. I had a chance to meet her. I love her modern day Dorothy Gale shoes... Antonio Berardi.
